This Versaflex™ PKG TPE is formulated for aluminum caps used for sealing glass, polyethylene terephthalate (PET), or aluminum containers. We specifically engineered our Versaflex PKG 4190 low-migration TPEs to preserve the quality of even the most delicate beverages, provide good seal integrity, and allow easy removal of the cap.” The new Versaflex PKG material comes as a granular material that is compliant with EU 10/2011 and FDA 177.1210 food contact regulations.

The injection-moldable Versaflex™ HC 3810 series is formulated without animal derivatives and offers a wide range of durometers to serve a variety of medical device applications.   Commercially available in North America, the new specialty Versaflex grades are translucent and offer excellent colorability. Versaflex 3810 materials can be used with gamma and autoclave sterilization methods.

These materials are commonly used in injection molding, blow molding, film extrusion and other plastics processes. Additives for Polyolefin Films: Cesa™ Enhance properties and processing capability with multifunctional additives for polyolefin films

CLEVELAND – PolyOne Corporation (NYSE:POL) has launched a new overmolding technology based on its Versaflex™ VDT thermoplastic elastomer (TPE), developed for vibration and impact damping applications. The new Versaflex VDT solution enables a better end-user experience in a wide range of products for which manufacturers seek increased comfort and resilience. The new Versaflex VDT solution can also help reduce noise by minimizing vibrations transmitted from motors and pumps.

Versaflex™ HC thermoplastic elastomers can enhance ergonomics in medical devices by adding a soft touch and improved grip. Specifically formulated to bond tightly to the semi-crystalline Trilliant HC substrate, Versaflex HC OM 8940 demonstrated excellent peel strength (also known as bond strength). Average Peel Strength (PLI) Versaflex™ HC OM 8940 Trilliant™ HC 8910 16.3 Trilliant™ HC 8920 FR 17.0
